BK007 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 That poster looks really bad. It's like a second rate Chinese company tried to make a sequel to Dragon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alee7915 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Chinese poster Based on this poster, The name of the film in China also slightly different from HTTYD. Edited July 27, 2014 by J LO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSabrinax Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 50-60 million I can't see anything more than 25m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) From what I've observed, China is just plain unpredictable. These numbers are going to be purely rhetorical, but it could make $25m or it could make $100m - in most cases there seems to be absolutely no way to gauge how a given film might perform before it actually happens.

tupek Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 :blink:I can't see anything more than 25m.Why not? Despicable Me 2, Frozen made around $50m. The Croods made $62m.Even MU made $35m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xSabrinax Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Why not? Despicable Me 2, Frozen made around $50m. The Croods made $62m.Even MU made $35m. The first movie wasn't even released at there. Was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Neither was the first Despicable Me, and yet DM2 made $50m (even with the Chinese government dragging their feet on approving a release for almost 6 months).As I said, China always seems to be a wild card.

tupek Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 I think it could breakout in China... or could not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alee7915 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) It might end up with over $300M in China just like what TF4 has done in China! Edited July 27, 2014 by J LO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx93 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Screendaily: DreamWorks Animation’s How To Train Your Dragon 2 flew delivered $24m to soar to $260.2m. with debuts still to come in China, Spain and Italy in August. The family film opened in second place in Germany on $6.1m from 1,074 screens and top in Austria on $1m from 163. It opened in the non-fox market of South Korea on $7.4m from 828 screens. The UK drove a $1.6m holdover for $25.9m, while Venezuela generated a number one hold on $1.6m for $4.9m. Dragon 2 added $1.3m in France for $20.5m after four sessions.

tupek Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Dammit for France and UK, but WOW Germany and Venezuela!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilderic Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 It should make around $550 million. Based on the numbers above, it added $33 million overseas over the past week, and still has China, Spain, Italy, and maybe Japan to come.The first one, however, wasn't very huge in the markets left:Italy $7,505,879Japan $5,540,461Spain $12,458,930Total $25,505,270I think the sequel will increase at least in Spain and Italy, and with holdovers it should easily go past $500m. But I think it needs a breakout in China to get to $550m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 China is now the deciding factor for basically EVERYTHING 50-60M in China would be fine. I'm still so disappointed in this film's overall BO run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Sticking with 600M+ WW. Around 120M from holdovers + remaining markets (minus China). Thefore, 175+380=555M without China. Where it will probably make around 50M dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tupek Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Rio 2 will be surpassed for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
